Website offers restaurant deals

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - If you have someone who loves eating out on your holiday shopping list, we have a deal for you.

You can get a $25 gift certificate to your favorite local restaurant for as little as $5.

Here's how. Log onto restaurant.com. You can see on the homepage that this site usually gets you a $25 gift certificate for as little as $10 at more than 13,000 restaurants nationwide, that's a great deal. But now News 4 has an even better deal for you.

Just enter your zip code. And here 86 restaurants pop up in a 15 mile radius. At Cameos, you can get a $10 gift certificate for $4. A $25 gift certificate for $12.50. A $100 gift certificate for $40.

At Brodo in Amherst, it's a $25 gift certificate for $12.50. And now here's the important part. From now until the end of the year, if you type in the discount code "ALL" into the little box, you get 50% off. So that makes it only $6.25 for a $25 gift certificate.

So you checkout and enter your credit card info. Ignore the offer for free magazines. And that's it. You can print out the certificates immediately, or from your e-mail.

Keep it for yourself or give it as a gift. It's also great to give it as a gift for people out of town. Remember discount code "all" is the important part.

Last year, during the holidays, there was a coupon code circulating that gave you 80% off at restaurant.com. So News 4 will keep checking for that coupon code and let you know if it pops up.
